Rulthan

Rulthan has long been the seat of power of the Nindir kingdom. Rulthan has a small fishing port that also holds some small royal ships: the only vessels that can sail the Dragon's Strait, because it is too shallow for large ships. This makes Rulthan reliant on Athhan for the import of overseas goods and its naval base.

In the middle of this massive city lies the royal court. Many of the official guilds and royal offices are located around this court and make it the wealthiest city of the kingdom. The city has many parks, grand villas and manors, rich inns and alehouses, luxurious brothels and the best entertainment in the two worlds.

But the city has a dark underside: behind the Gate of Elemental Might lie the slums, its citizens kept out of sight by the city guard. A large, thick wall cuts a quarter out the sprawling city and lock this unwanted side far away from the royal court and the trade quarter.

Only those with a permit are allowed to work within city and slaves are expected to be kept inside at all times.
With the rise of king Stokys all Sha have abandoned the city: the only Sha still around are slaves.
